The date from which this amendment would come into effect will be notified in due course. 5. In other words, date of effect of the provisions discussed in para 3 & 4 above are not being notified at present. 6. Amendments have been made by Sections 113, 114 and 115 in the Finance Act, 1994, in order to impart greater clarity and align the service tax provisions with those in Central Excise by adding provisions relating to closure of proceedings in sections 76, 78 and 78B. A similar alignment with the central excise provisions has been done in sections 76(2) and 78(2) with respect to cases where the appellate authority increases the duty or penalty. These s have come into effect immediately after enactment of Finance Bill, All the above s may be brought to the notice of trade and industry and wide publicity may be made in this regard.

6 2.1.1 To know whether a service has been provided or agreed to be provided for a consideration and its point of taxation, three main ingredients i.e. provision of taxable service, raising of invoice and receipt of payment are important. Service provided or agreed to be provided cannot be considered as taxable service if there is no consideration. Consideration is known only if invoice is raised or payment is made. In view of Section 67A of the Finance Act, services where there is no confusion in time of provision of service, receipt of payment and raising on invoice, rate of service tax will be as applicable at the time when taxable service has been provided or agreed to be provided. However, in case of complex situations, where it is not possible to determine the time, when the taxable service has been provided or agreed to be provided, point of taxation would be determined as per Rule 4 of the Point of Taxation Rules, Therefore, rule 4 would be applicable as under: Sr. No. Service Provided Invoice w.r.t. rate Payment w.r.t. rate Point of Taxation Rule Rate of service Tax 1. Before rate After After 4(a)(i) 14% 2. -do- Before After 4(a)(ii) 12.36% 3. -do- After Before 4(a)(iii) 12.36% 4.
